Wonder Woman: Agent of Peace #1 - “Commitment to Chaos” (2020)

written by Amanda Conner & Jimmy Palmiotti art by Inaki Miranda & Hi-Fi Colors

The “Oh, Persephone’s patience” is killing me bc it means Harley just sounds like Hades praising Persephone

Harley is just gay for everyone isn’t she

That implies that being gay for wonder woman is some kind of stretch

It’s called the foot-in-the-door method. First, you propose something that is slightly outside of allowable norms: denying gay people wedding cakes on grounds of “religious freedom”. Then, you slowly ramp up how extreme your demands are, coercing the other side to giving a tiny bit of ground each time, until you’ve shifted the entire fucking playing field. Conservatives are also very fond of the door-to-face method, which is demanding something completely outlandish that you know will be refused, and then asking for something less ridiculous by way of compromise, again resulting in a gradual shift in norms until views that were once considered moderate or reasonable become unthinkably liberal by destroying people’s sense of standards. The combination of these methods is called the “foot-in-the-face” method, which sums up where this whole thing is headed quite nicely.

Hey remember how you guys kept saying “why not just go to another bakery”? 

Won’t that only solve 75% of your problems?

The book solves half of your problems, not all of them

Say you have 8 problems. You read the book, and you have 4 problems. You read the book again gets rid of HALF, of those 4 problems. So you’re left with two. Out of the 8 problems, 6 were resolved and 6/8 is 75%.

Finally Tumblr can do math

So, what you’re saying, is that if I buy infinite books, I will solve all of my problems, because the sum as n approaches infinity starting at 1 of (½)^n equals 1, which would be 100% of my problems.

No, you will only ever be able to become infinitely close to solving all of your problems, like this:

Please stop explaining math to me im gay

that’s why radioactive material is such a bitch! it only ever deteriorates relative to its mass so it will never completely vanish

This post is pushing me to the limit

You know, you could just buy enough books to cut your problems down to one and hope it’s one you can solve on your own.

If your problems are truly integer in nature, eventually you hit the point where the infinite divisibility model fails.  Then, each new book has a 50% chance of solving your one remaining problem.

Unfortunately, problems are not a static set, and you are likely to gain new problems along the way.  Problems like, “Where do I put all these books?”

If your problems are truly integer in nature, I feel bad for you son

I got infinitely divisible problems but a book ain’t one.

Tell me now the Lebesgue measure of your problems
